Nevada AG's Mortgage Fraud Task Force Raids Title & Escrow Company

In Henderson, Nevada, KLAS-TV Channel 8 reports:

• A Henderson title and escrow office was the focus of a raid by the Nevada Attorney General's Office. Mortgage fraud investigators took over the office Tuesday morning to investigate. The office of American United Title and Escrow had a steady stream of investigators in and out of the business all day. The AG's office is not releasing any details about the investigation because charges have not been filed. Agents were seen going through paperwork in several of the offices. Also, an SUV parked in front of the office was being taken away on a tow truck.

• The mortgage fraud task force is conducting this raid -- a group that was formed about a year ago as a response to the rise mortgage scams around the state.
